This was descriptive research aiming at providing a general description of primary school pre-service teachers’ technology self-efficacy in creating e-learning content using CourseLab 2.4. The main instrument of this research was a self-report questionnaire consisting of both scaled and free-response items. The questionnaire was distributed to 46 sophomores of Primary School Teacher Education Program of Sanata Dharma University taking Media Pembelajaran Berbasis ICT (MPB ICT) course as one of their compulsory courses. The analysis of the data gathered from the questionnaire responses showed that 58.7% of the primary school pre-service teachers of Sanata Dharma University had ‘average’ technology self-efficacy in creating e-learning content using CourseLab 2.4 while only 41.3% having ‘high’ self-efficacy in using the same software. The average technology self-efficacy was attributed to their unfamiliarity to the authoring software and their limited experience in course content development as well as in coding in general. The student teachers, however, credited the software for providing them with tools and machinery to create their own tests or quizzes for any learning materials they had previously created.Keywords: Pre-service teachers, primary school, self-efficacy, CourseLab 2.4
This research was qualitative survey research aiming at elaborating the primary school pre-service teachers' perceptions of CourseLab 2.4 and its attributes a free e-learning content creation software. During the research, a questionnaire sheet containing five questions related to CourseLab 2.4 was distributed to 47 sophomore students of Primary School Teacher Education Program of Sanata Dharma University taking MPB ICT (Media Pembelajaran Berbasis ICT) as one of their compulsory subjects. The analysis of the data gathered from the questionnaire responses showed that the primary school preservice teachers of Sanata Dharma University had positive perceptions of CourseLab 2.4. These positive perceptions were attributed to the advantageous features of the free authoring software, such as the similarity of its user interface to Microsoft PowerPoint and its ability to facilitate the pre-service teachers to create interactive quizzes. The positive perceptions of the primary school pre-service teachers also led to their positive attitudes towards the software as shown by their confidence in planning to continue using it in their professional life later.
As one of the most widely used international primary curricula in the world, the Primary Years Program (PYP) introduced by the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) has significantly increased its number of world schools in the Asia Pacific region including Indonesia. With the increased number of IB World Schools in the country, there comes a need to prepare for teachers qualified for teaching using the PYP as their framework. Indonesian higher educational institutions are therefore required to not only prepare teachers qualified in their teaching profession but also those having an open mind towards international education in general. It is important, then, to have insights on what these preservice teachers think about international primary education, especially about the PYP and its implementation in primary schools in Indonesia. These perspectives will make useful raw data on the characteristics of Indonesian primary pre-service teachers and their readiness to take their professional career in any international primary schools including the IB world schools.
<p>This was a systematic literature review study aiming at exploring the implementation of the reflective pedagogy paradigm in the Indonesian educational context. The works being reviewed in the study were gathered using Harzing’s Publish and Perish software. The criteria for including the works were being indexed by Google Scholar, published between the last ten years (2012-2021), the most cited works during their year of publication, and published in, at least, peer-reviewed journals. This review excluded conference papers published in proceedings and other works that were not published in journals. The results of the review showed that the reflective pedagogy had been widely used across subject areas and levels of education in Indonesia. It was also found out that, as the fundamental part of the pedagogy, reflection had been regarded as a process where learners looked back at their learning process to identify their experiences and the values they had learned during the process. Based on the results, this study concluded that the implementation of the reflective pedagogy could improve learners’ achievement and awareness of life values and virtues. It also recommended implementing the pedagogy to encourage learners to be autonomous in assessing their learning to prepare themselves to be lifelong learners.</p><p><strong><br /></strong></p><p><strong>Bahasa Indonesia Abstrak</strong></p><p>Ini adalah studi tinjauan pustaka sistematis yang bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi implementasi paradigma pedagogi reflektif dalam konteks pendidikan Indonesia. Karya-karya yang ditinjau dalam penelitian ini dikumpulkan menggunakan perangkat lunak Harzing's Publish and Perish. Kriteria untuk memasukkan karya sedang diindeks oleh Google Scholar, diterbitkan antara sepuluh tahun terakhir (2012-2021), karya yang paling banyak dikutip selama tahun publikasi mereka, dan diterbitkan setidaknya di jurnal peer-review. Tinjauan ini mengecualikan makalah konferensi yang diterbitkan dalam prosiding dan karya lain yang tidak diterbitkan dalam jurnal. Hasil review menunjukkan bahwa pedagogi reflektif telah banyak digunakan di seluruh bidang studi dan jenjang pendidikan di Indonesia. Ditemukan juga bahwa, sebagai bagian mendasar dari pedagogi, refleksi telah dianggap sebagai proses di mana peserta didik melihat kembali proses belajar mereka untuk mengidentifikasi pengalaman mereka dan nilai-nilai yang telah mereka pelajari selama proses tersebut. Berdasarkan hasil tersebut, penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa penerapan pedagogi reflektif dapat meningkatkan prestasi dan kesadaran peserta didik akan nilai-nilai dan kebajikan hidup. Direkomendasikan pula penerapan pedagogi untuk mendorong peserta didik menjadi mandiri dalam menilai pembelajaran mereka untuk mempersiapkan diri menjadi pembelajar sepanjang hayat.</p>
